Two data-loss / leak gaps in HindsightMemoryProvider.on_session_switch
introduced by #17409.
1. Buffered turns silently lost when retain_every_n_turns > 1.
on_session_switch unconditionally cleared _session_turns without
flushing. Users who batched every N>1 turns and switched mid-batch
(/reset, /new, /resume, /branch, or context compression) had those
buffered turns disappear. Same data-loss class as the shutdown race,
different lifecycle event.
Note commit_memory_session() -> on_session_end() runs *before*
on_session_switch on /reset, but Hindsight doesn't implement
on_session_end so the buffer survives that step and dies at clear
time. /resume, /branch, and compression skip commit_memory_session
entirely so an on_session_end impl wouldn't help them anyway.
Fix: snapshot the old _session_id, _document_id, _parent_session_id,
_turn_index, and _session_turns; spawn one final retain that lands
under the OLD document_id; then rotate state. Metadata is built
synchronously against the old self._* so session_id / lineage tags
on the flushed item all reference the prior session consistently.
2. Stale _prefetch_result leaks across switch.
If queue_prefetch ran in the old session and the result hadn't been
consumed by prefetch() yet, on_session_switch left the cached recall
text in place. The next session's first prefetch() call would return
text mined from the prior session's bank/query.
Fix: join any in-flight _prefetch_thread (3s bounded — matches
shutdown()), then clear _prefetch_result under _prefetch_lock before
rotating session_id.
Tests
-----
- tests/plugins/memory/test_hindsight_provider.py (TestSessionSwitchBufferFlush):
- buffered turns flushed under OLD document_id with OLD lineage tags
- empty buffer => no spurious retain
- _prefetch_result cleared on switch
- in-flight prefetch thread is awaited before clear (no race)
- tests/agent/test_memory_session_switch.py: factory extended to seed the
attrs the new flush path reads (_retain_source, _platform, _bank_id,
prefetch state, etc.) and stub _run_hindsight_operation so existing
switch-state assertions keep passing without network setup.
The ~/.openclaw/ detection banner (#16327) had two problems flagged in #16629:
1. It only pitched 'hermes claw cleanup' (destructive archive) and never
mentioned 'hermes claw migrate' — the actual non-destructive path that
ports config/memory/skills into Hermes.
2. The copy anthropomorphized the bug ('the agent can still get confused',
'dutifully reads') and framed OpenClaw as a competitor to eliminate
('instead of Hermes's').
Rewrite so migrate leads, cleanup is a clearly-labelled follow-up with a
warning that archiving breaks OpenClaw for users still running it.
Closes#16629
Address Copilot review on PR #16666:
1. **Duplicate event on every tool start** — both ``tool_progress_callback``
and ``tool_start_callback`` fire side-by-side in ``run_agent.py``, so
wiring both into chat completions emitted *two* ``hermes.tool.progress``
events per real tool call. Drop the legacy ``_on_tool_progress`` emit
entirely; ``_on_tool_start`` now produces a single unified event that
carries the legacy ``tool``/``emoji``/``label`` fields plus the new
``toolCallId``/``status`` correlation fields. Label is computed inline
via ``build_tool_preview`` so callers do not need to pre-format it.
2. **Weak per-event correlation in the regression test** — the previous
assertion checked that a ``toolCallId`` appeared *somewhere* in the
aggregate, which would have passed even if ``running`` lacked the id.
Collect ``(status, toolCallId)`` per event and assert each event
carries the correct pair, plus exactly two events on the wire (no
silent duplication regression).
The two existing chat-completions tool-progress tests are updated to fire
``tool_start_callback`` instead of ``tool_progress_callback``, matching
production reality where ``run_agent`` always pairs them.

Adds Vercel Sandbox as a supported Hermes terminal backend alongside
existing providers (Local, Docker, Modal, SSH, Daytona, Singularity).
Uses the Vercel Python SDK to create/manage cloud microVMs, supports
snapshot-based filesystem persistence keyed by task_id, and integrates
with the existing BaseEnvironment shell contract and FileSyncManager
for credential/skill syncing.
Based on #17127 by @scotttrinh, cherry-picked onto current main.
Adds two API server endpoints for external UIs and orchestrators:
- GET /v1/capabilities — machine-readable feature discovery so clients
can detect which Runs API / SSE / auth features this Hermes version
supports before depending on them.
- GET /v1/runs/{run_id} — pollable run status so dashboards can check
queued/running/completed/failed/cancelled/stopping state without
holding an SSE connection open.
Also moves request validation ahead of run allocation so invalid
payloads no longer leave orphaned entries in _run_streams waiting for
the TTL sweep.
task_id is intentionally kept as "default" for the Runs API to
preserve the shared-sandbox model used by CLI, gateway, and the
existing _run_agent_with_callbacks path. session_id is surfaced in
run status for external-UI correlation only.
Salvage of PR #17085 by @Magaav.
The guard that drops Anthropic's `thinking` kwarg for Kimi endpoints was
matched on `https://api.kimi.com/coding` only. Users configuring a
custom Kimi-compatible gateway (or an official Moonshot host) with
`api_mode: anthropic_messages` fall through to the generic third-party
path, which strips thinking blocks AND still sends
`thinking={enabled,...}` → upstream rejects with HTTP 400
"reasoning_content is missing in assistant tool call message at index N"
on the next request after a tool call.
Replace `_is_kimi_coding_endpoint` callers (history replay + thinking
kwarg gate) with `_is_kimi_family_endpoint(base_url, model)` that also
matches the `api.kimi.com` / `moonshot.ai` / `moonshot.cn` hosts and
Kimi/Moonshot family model names (`kimi-`, `moonshot-`, `k1.`, `k2.`,
…) for custom / proxied endpoints. Keeps the UA-header check in
`build_anthropic_client` URL-only — the `claude-code/0.1.0` header is
an official-Kimi contract.
Plumbs optional `model` through `convert_messages_to_anthropic` so
the unsigned reasoning_content→thinking block synthesised for Kimi's
history validation survives the third-party signature-stripping pass
on custom hosts too.
Closes#17057.
The cron schema contracts deliver as a string ("local", "origin",
"telegram", "telegram:chat_id[:thread_id]", or comma-separated combos),
but MCP clients and scripts sometimes pass an array like ['telegram'].
Before this change, the list was written to jobs.json verbatim, and
the scheduler's str(deliver).split(',') then tried to resolve the
literal string "['telegram']" as a platform — returning None and
logging 'no delivery target resolved for deliver=[\'telegram\']'.
Fix on both ends:
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: normalize deliver at the API boundary on
create and update, so storage is always a string.
- cron/scheduler.py: normalize deliver in _resolve_delivery_targets,
so existing jobs.json entries with list-form deliver are handled
gracefully without requiring users to edit the file.
Closes#17139
The normalize_model_name() function unconditionally converted dots to
hyphens in all model names. This caused non-Anthropic models (e.g.
gpt-5.4) to be mangled to gpt-5-4 when routed through the Anthropic
adapter path, resulting in HTTP 404 from the backend.
Now only applies dot-to-hyphen conversion for models starting with
"claude-" or "anthropic/", which are the actual Anthropic model IDs.

The plugin used to spawn one daemon thread per sync_turn() to do the
aretain_batch network write. On CLI exit, that pattern raced interpreter
shutdown — the last retain could reach aiohttp after asyncio's
"cannot schedule new futures" guard had fired, producing noisy logs and
silently losing the final unsaved turn:
WARNING ... Hindsight sync failed: cannot schedule new futures after
interpreter shutdown
ERROR asyncio: Unclosed client session
client_session: <aiohttp.client.ClientSession object at 0x...>
Switch to a single-writer model: each provider owns one long-lived
writer thread plus a queue. sync_turn() snapshots state and enqueues a
job; the writer drains sequentially. Once shutdown() is called:
- new sync_turn() / queue_prefetch() calls are dropped, not enqueued
- a sentinel wakes the writer so it finishes in-flight work
- shutdown joins the writer (10s) before nulling the client
Also register an idempotent atexit hook from the first sync_turn(), so
exit paths that don't go through MemoryManager.shutdown_all() (Ctrl-C,
abrupt exit) still get a chance to drain.
Tests: keep _sync_thread as a legacy alias to the writer, swap join()
calls to _retain_queue.join() (canonical wait-for-drain), add a new
TestShutdownRace suite covering single-writer reuse, post-shutdown drop,
queue draining, and shutdown idempotency.
Pass encoding='utf-8', errors='ignore' and guard against result.stdout
being None so _scan_gateway_pids() no longer crashes with
UnicodeDecodeError + AttributeError on Windows systems whose default
code page is not UTF-8 (e.g. cp936 on zh-CN). The parser only matches
the ASCII prefixes CommandLine= and ProcessId=, so dropping undecodable
bytes is safe.
Closes#17049.
Two fix-ups for #17123:
1. Reword the inline comment in `_warn_stale_dashboard_processes` to
accurately describe the failure mode (locale-dependent decoder, not a
"default UTF-8 decoder") and identify `errors="ignore"` as the
load-bearing protection. Per Copilot's review.
2. Switch `TestWindowsWmicEncoding` from `patch("hermes_cli.main.sys")`
to `monkeypatch.setattr(sys, "platform", "win32")` — the codebase's
canonical pattern (e.g. `tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_ssl_macos.py`).
The MagicMock-replacement approach passed locally on Python 3.12 but
the platform-equality check failed under CI's xdist+Python 3.11,
leaving both new tests red despite the fix being present.

`hermes update` calls `_warn_stale_dashboard_processes()` to warn about
dashboard processes still running the pre-update Python backend. On
Windows, that scan shells out to `wmic process get ProcessId,CommandLine
/FORMAT:LIST` with `text=True` and no explicit encoding.
`wmic` emits text in the system code page (e.g. cp936 on zh-CN locales),
not UTF-8. Without an explicit `encoding=`, Python's default UTF-8
decoder crashes the subprocess reader thread with
`UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xd0 ...`. In
Python 3.11 that crash is silently absorbed: `subprocess.run()` returns
a `CompletedProcess` with `result.stdout = None`, the next line calls
`result.stdout.split("\n")`, and `hermes update` aborts with the
exact `AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'`
trace reported in #17049.
Fix: pass `encoding="utf-8", errors="ignore"` so undecodable bytes
cannot take down the reader thread (the parsing only matches the ASCII
prefixes `CommandLine=` and `ProcessId=`, so dropping non-UTF-8 bytes
is safe), and short-circuit when `result.stdout is None` as a defensive
guard for environments where the reader thread still fails for other
reasons.
This is the same root cause as #17074 (which patches
`hermes_cli/gateway._scan_gateway_pids` for the `hermes setup` path).
That PR does not touch `_warn_stale_dashboard_processes`, so
`hermes update` remains broken on the same locales until this lands.
Regression test in `tests/hermes_cli/test_update_stale_dashboard.py`:
- `test_wmic_invoked_with_utf8_ignore_errors` asserts the explicit
encoding/errors kwargs reach `subprocess.run`.
- `test_wmic_returns_none_stdout_does_not_crash` simulates the
reader-thread-crashed `result.stdout=None` aftermath and asserts the
function returns silently instead of raising AttributeError.
Both new tests fail against clean origin/main (7d4648461) reproducing
the original AttributeError; both pass with this patch. The remaining
3 failures in `tests/hermes_cli/test_cmd_update.py` and
`test_update_autostash.py` are pre-existing baselines on origin/main —
they reproduce identically without this change and are unrelated to
the wmic scan.

QR-login connects an iLink bot identity (...@im.bot), not a scriptable
personal WeChat account. iLink typically does not deliver ordinary WeChat
group events to these bots, so WEIXIN_GROUP_POLICY / WEIXIN_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS
often have no effect regardless of value.
- Setup wizard: print iLink-bot caveat before the group-policy prompt; relabel
the allowlist input as 'group chat IDs (not member user IDs)'; note that
'open' / 'allowlist' only take effect if iLink delivers group events.
- Adapter: log a WARNING at connect() when WEIXIN_GROUP_POLICY is non-disabled
so the limitation is surfaced in gateway logs, not just docs.
- Docs: add a top-of-page warning callout to weixin.md explaining the iLink
bot identity, narrow the 'DM and group messaging' feature line to DM-only
with a group caveat, tighten the Group Policy section and troubleshooting
row, and clarify WEIXIN_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS as group IDs (not user IDs)
in weixin.md and environment-variables.md.
Closes#17094
Widen #17163 to the sibling file tools/transcription_tools.py, which had
the same class of bug. STT provider call sites and the _get_provider
selection gate called os.getenv(...) directly and missed keys that only
lived in ~/.hermes/.env.
Same pattern as tts_tool.py: one guarded top-level import of
get_env_value (falls back to os.getenv on ImportError), then every
API-key and paired-base-URL lookup swapped over.
Call sites migrated:
- _transcribe_groq — GROQ_API_KEY
- _transcribe_mistral — MISTRAL_API_KEY
- _transcribe_xai — XAI_API_KEY, XAI_STT_BASE_URL
- _get_provider — GROQ/MISTRAL/XAI_API_KEY in explicit + auto branches
Module-level defaults (DEFAULT_STT_MODEL, GROQ_BASE_URL, etc.) stay on
os.getenv — they're import-time constants, not runtime config, and the
dotenv fallback would add no value there.
New regression tests in tests/tools/test_transcription_dotenv_fallback.py
(8 cases) mirror briandevans' TTS tests: per-provider dotenv-key
forwarding, selection-gate dotenv visibility, and an end-to-end probe
that patches hermes_cli.config.load_env to simulate ~/.hermes/.env
carrying the key while os.environ does not.
Wrap the new top-level `from hermes_cli.config import get_env_value`
in try/except ImportError and fall back to a thin os.getenv shim, so
importing tools.tts_tool keeps working in environments where
hermes_cli.config is unavailable. This matches the existing tolerance
in `_load_tts_config()` (tools/tts_tool.py) and the same
import-fallback pattern in tools/tool_backend_helpers.py::fal_key_is_configured.
Also update the TestDotenvFallbackPerProvider docstring to accurately
describe the mocking strategy: per-provider tests patch
`tools.tts_tool.get_env_value` directly, while the regression-guard
tests cover the lower-level `hermes_cli.config.load_env` integration.
Addresses Copilot review on #17163.

TTS provider tools (elevenlabs, xai, minimax, mistral, gemini) called
os.getenv("X_API_KEY") directly, which bypassed Hermes's dotenv bridge in
hermes_cli.config. Users who keep their TTS keys only in ~/.hermes/.env saw
"X_API_KEY not set" errors even though the rest of the stack
(agent/credential_pool, hermes_cli/auth) already resolves keys through
get_env_value() — same class of bug as #15914 fixed for those modules.
Switch every TTS env-var lookup (API keys, base URLs, and
check_tts_requirements gates) to get_env_value, which checks os.environ
first and then ~/.hermes/.env. Behaviour for users with keys exported in
the shell is unchanged; users with dotenv-only keys now succeed. The two
diagnostics prints in __main__ are migrated for consistency.
Regression test (tests/tools/test_tts_dotenv_fallback.py):
- per-provider: each backend reads the dotenv key when only
~/.hermes/.env carries it (5 providers).
- end-to-end: with hermes_cli.config.load_env returning the key and
os.environ empty, _generate_minimax_tts and check_tts_requirements
both succeed; reverting tools/tts_tool.py back to os.getenv makes all
7 tests fail with "MINIMAX_API_KEY not set" / similar.

* docs(anthropic): correct OAuth scope to Max plan + extra usage credits only
The previous docs pass (#17399) overstated what Anthropic OAuth works
with. In practice Hermes can only route against a Claude Max plan that
has purchased extra usage credits — the base Max allowance is not
consumed, and Claude Pro is not supported at all. Without Max + extra
credits, users must fall back to an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (pay-per-token).
Updates the four pages touched in #17399:
- integrations/providers.md
- user-guide/features/credential-pools.md
- reference/environment-variables.md
- getting-started/quickstart.md
* fix(aux): skip kimi-coding in vision auto-detect (closes#17076)
Kimi Coding Plan's /coding endpoint (Anthropic Messages wire) has no
image_in capability — Kimi's own docs confirm and suggest switching to
a vision-capable model. Vision lives on the separate Kimi Platform
(api.moonshot.ai, OpenAI-wire, pay-as-you-go). When the user has
kimi-coding as main provider and auxiliary.vision.provider=auto,
resolve_vision_provider_client was handing back an AnthropicAuxiliaryClient
wrapped around /coding which 404'd on every vision request.
Add a _PROVIDERS_WITHOUT_VISION frozenset ({kimi-coding, kimi-coding-cn})
and gate the main-provider vision branch on membership. On a skip the
auto-detect falls through to OpenRouter → Nous like any other
main-provider-unavailable case.
Explicit per-task overrides (auxiliary.vision.provider=kimi-coding) are
unaffected — the skip only applies when the caller is in auto mode.
Tests: 4 new targeted tests in TestVisionAutoSkipsKimiCoding covering
the skip path, CN variant, explicit-override passthrough, and a guard
against accidental skip-list widening.
_update_cwd() uses a bare open(self._cwd_file).read() that never
closes the file descriptor. This method runs on every terminal
command execution, so the fd leaks accumulate in long sessions.
Use a with statement so the fd is released promptly.
Fixes#15552 (standalone resubmission)
Regression test for the ret=-2 / errmsg='unknown error' disambiguation:
- ret=-2 or errcode=-2 with 'unknown error' → stale session (True)
- ret=-2 with 'freq limit' or other errmsg → rate limit (False)
- ret=-14 → not matched here (handled by SESSION_EXPIRED_ERRCODE path)
- Success codes and missing errmsg → False
The Weixin adapter only recognized errcode=-14 as a session-expired
signal. However, iLink also returns ret=-2 with errmsg="unknown error"
for the same underlying condition (stale session). The adapter treated
ret=-2 as a rate-limit, exhausting retries with the same stale
context_token instead of refreshing the session.
Added _is_stale_session_ret() helper that distinguishes ret=-2 with
"unknown error" from genuine rate limits. Updated both the poll loop
and _send_text_chunk to use the helper.
FixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#17228
_run_async() bridges sync tool handlers to async code. When the handler
is invoked from inside a running event loop (gateway / nested async),
it spawns a worker thread and blocks on future.result(timeout=300).
Before this change, a coroutine that ran past 300s leaked its worker
thread:
- future.cancel() is a no-op on a running ThreadPoolExecutor future
(cancel only works on not-yet-started work).
- pool.shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=True) let the caller
proceed but the worker kept running the coroutine until it
returned on its own.
Every tool timeout leaked one thread. In long-lived gateway / RL
sessions this is cumulative.
The fix replaces bare asyncio.run() with a worker wrapper that
creates its own event loop. On timeout, _run_async schedules
task.cancel() on that loop via call_soon_threadsafe, then shuts the
pool down with wait=False so the caller returns immediately. The
coroutine observes CancelledError at its next await and the worker
thread exits cleanly.
Also switches logger.error() to logger.exception() in the top-level
handle_function_call() except block so tool failures produce full
stack traces in errors.log instead of just the message.
Related: #17420 (contributor flagged the leak; the original fix used
pool.shutdown(wait=True) which would have converted the leak into a
hang — caller blocks forever on the same stuck coroutine). Credit
for identifying the leak goes to the contributor.

Wrap each adapter.connect() in asyncio.wait_for() so one platform hanging
during startup or reconnect cannot block the others. Telegram's 8-retry
connect loop (~140s worst case) previously prevented Feishu from ever
starting when Telegram was network-restricted — common for users in
regions where Telegram is blocked.
Default timeout is 30s; override via HERMES_GATEWAY_PLATFORM_CONNECT_TIMEOUT
(0 disables). Applied to both startup and the reconnect watcher so a
platform that hangs mid-retry also does not stall retries for others.
Fixes#17242
When a background terminal process spawns a descendant daemon that
inherits the stdout pipe (e.g. 'hermes update' triggering a gateway
systemctl restart), the reader thread's stdout.read() never returns EOF
and its finally: block never runs. session.exited stays False forever,
so process(action='poll') returns 'running' indefinitely even though
the direct child exited long ago.
Issue #17327: Feishu user polled 74 times over 7 minutes before killing
the gateway manually.
Fix: add _reconcile_local_exit() that checks the direct Popen.poll()
before trusting session.exited. If the direct child has exited, drain
any immediately-readable bytes non-blocking and flip session.exited.
Called from poll() and wait(). The stuck reader thread remains blocked
but is a daemon thread and gets reaped with the process.
Safe no-op for env/PTY sessions, already-exited sessions, and live
children (returns None from Popen.poll()).
Fixes#6672
Memory providers now receive on_session_switch() whenever AIAgent.session_id
rotates mid-process — /resume, /branch, /reset, /new, and context
compression. Before this, providers that cached per-session state in
initialize() (Hindsight's _session_id, _document_id, accumulated
_session_turns, _turn_counter) kept writing into the old session's
record after the agent had moved on.
MemoryProvider ABC
------------------
- New optional hook on_session_switch(new_session_id, *,
parent_session_id='', reset=False, **kwargs) with no-op default for
backward compat. reset=True signals /reset or /new — providers should
flush accumulated per-session buffers. reset=False for /resume,
/branch, compression where the logical conversation continues.
MemoryManager
-------------
- on_session_switch() fans the hook out to every registered provider.
Isolated try/except per provider — one bad provider can't block others.
- Empty/None new_session_id is a no-op to avoid corrupting provider state
during shutdown paths.
run_agent.py
------------
- _sync_external_memory_for_turn now passes session_id=self.session_id
into sync_all() and queue_prefetch_all(). Providers with defensive
session_id updates in sync_turn (Hindsight already had this at
plugins/memory/hindsight/__init__.py:1199) now actually receive the
current id.
- Compression block at ~L8884 already notified the context engine of
the rollover; now also calls
_memory_manager.on_session_switch(reason='compression').
cli.py
------
- new_session() fires reset=True, reason='new_session' so providers
flush buffers.
- _handle_resume_command fires reset=False, reason='resume' with the
previous session as parent_session_id.
- _handle_branch_command fires reset=False, reason='branch' with the
parent session_id already captured for the DB parent link.
gateway/run.py
--------------
- _handle_resume_command now evicts the cached AIAgent, mirroring
/branch and /reset. The next message rebuilds a fresh agent whose
memory provider initialize() runs with the correct session_id —
matches the pattern the gateway already uses for provider state
cross-session transitions.
Hindsight reference implementation
----------------------------------
- plugins/memory/hindsight/__init__.py adds on_session_switch that:
updates _session_id, mints a fresh _document_id (prevents
vectorize-io/hindsight#1303 overwrite), and clears _session_turns /
_turn_counter / _turn_index so in-flight batches don't flush under
the new document id. parent_session_id only overwritten when provided
(avoids clobbering on a bare switch).
Tests
-----
- tests/agent/test_memory_session_switch.py: new dedicated file. ABC
default no-op, manager fan-out, failure isolation, empty-id no-op,
session_id propagation through sync_all/queue_prefetch_all, Hindsight
state transitions for every reset/non-reset case, parent preservation.
- tests/cli/test_branch_command.py: new test verifying /branch fires
the hook with correct parent_session_id + reset=False + reason.
- tests/gateway/test_resume_command.py: new test verifying /resume
evicts the cached agent.
- tests/run_agent/test_memory_sync_interrupted.py: updated existing
assertions to account for the session_id kwarg on sync_all and
queue_prefetch_all.
E2E verified (real imports, tmp HERMES_HOME):
- /resume: session_id updates, doc_id fresh, buffers cleared, parent set
- /branch: session_id forks, parent links to original
- /new: reset=True clears accumulated state
- compression: reason='compression' propagated, lineage preserved
- Empty id: no-op, state preserved
- Legacy provider without on_session_switch: no crash
Reported by @nicoloboschi (Hindsight maintainer); related scope-widening
comment by @kidonng extending coverage to compression.
MiniMax's /anthropic endpoint documents cache_control support (0.1x read
pricing, 5-min TTL) for MiniMax-M2.7, M2.5, M2.1, M2. PR #12846 gated
third-party Anthropic-wire caching on 'claude' in model name, which left
MiniMax's own model family re-paying full input tokens every turn.
Opt in explicitly via provider id (minimax / minimax-cn) or host match
(api.minimax.io / api.minimaxi.com). Narrow allowlist mirroring the
existing Qwen/Alibaba branch below; leaves room for a capability-based
surface (ProviderConfig.supports_anthropic_cache) if a third provider
needs it.
Closes#17332
Fixes#16825. Sessions using MiniMax-M2.7 via minimax-cn showed
estimated_cost_usd=0.0 and cost_status='unknown' because neither
provider had a billing route or pricing entry. Adds official_docs_snapshot
entries ($0.30/M input, $1.20/M output) for both minimax and minimax-cn,
and adds explicit routing in resolve_billing_route so both resolve to
billing_mode='official_docs_snapshot' instead of falling through to 'unknown'.
_send_yuanbao() already supported media_files= and the user-facing
error strings already advertised yuanbao support, but there was no
dispatch branch in _send_to_platform() actually routing to it. Target
yuanbao in send_message previously fell through to
"Direct sending not yet implemented".
- Add yuanbao media-chunk branch (mirrors Signal/Matrix: media on
final chunk only).
- Add yuanbao elif in the non-media loop.
Salvage of #17411; SKILL.md description change and redundant
sidebars.ts entry dropped, indentation/trailing-whitespace cleaned up.
- _markdown_to_signal docstring claimed SPOILER support but the regex list
never handled ``||...||``. Correct the docstring to match the four
actually-supported styles (BOLD / ITALIC / STRIKETHROUGH / MONOSPACE).
Signal's SPOILER bodyRange would need dedicated ``||spoiler||`` parsing
and is left for a follow-up.
- scripts/release.py: add exiao's noreply email to AUTHOR_MAP so the
contributor-attribution gate accepts their cherry-picked commit.
Three Signal adapter improvements that depend on the no-edit-mode
plumbing from the previous commit.
1. Native formatting (markdown -> Signal bodyRanges)
Signal renders markdown as literal characters (**bold**, `code`, #
heading), which looks broken. Added _markdown_to_signal(text) that
strips markdown syntax and emits Signal-native bodyRanges as
start:length:STYLE entries. Offsets are computed in UTF-16 code
units so non-BMP emoji stay aligned. Supports BOLD, ITALIC, STRIKE,
MONO, and headings mapped to BOLD. Fenced code and inline code are
handled; link syntax is unwrapped to visible text + URL.
Includes edge-case fixes reported previously:
- Bullet lists ("* item") no longer misidentified as italics
- URLs containing underscores no longer italicized around the dot
2. Reply-quote context
Parses dataMessage.quote on inbound messages and populates
MessageEvent.raw_message with sender + timestamp_ms. This lets the
gateway's existing [Replying to: "..."] injector (gateway/run.py)
work on Signal, matching Telegram/Matrix behavior.
3. Processing reactions
Overrides on_processing_start -> hourglass and on_processing_complete
-> checkmark via the sendReaction JSON-RPC using targetAuthor and
targetTimestamp pulled from raw_message. Uses the ProcessingOutcome
enum introduced in the previous commit.
Also sets SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False on SignalAdapter so the
no-edit streaming path activates.
Tests: 40+ new tests in tests/gateway/test_signal_format.py covering
markdown conversion, UTF-16 offset correctness with non-BMP emoji,
bullet-list and URL false-positive regressions, reply-quote extraction,
and reaction payload shape. Regression extensions to test_signal.py.
The previous docs pass (#17399) overstated what Anthropic OAuth works
with. In practice Hermes can only route against a Claude Max plan that
has purchased extra usage credits — the base Max allowance is not
consumed, and Claude Pro is not supported at all. Without Max + extra
credits, users must fall back to an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (pay-per-token).
Updates the four pages touched in #17399:
- integrations/providers.md
- user-guide/features/credential-pools.md
- reference/environment-variables.md
- getting-started/quickstart.md
Users have been asking what they're billed for when they authenticate
Anthropic via OAuth in Hermes. Clarify in the provider docs that OAuth
routes through Anthropic's Claude Code subscription path — consuming
the extra Claude Code usage included with their Pro or Max plan — and
that an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is pay-per-token against that key's org
instead.
Touches:
- integrations/providers.md: new info admonition in Anthropic (Native)
section, plus provider-table row.
- user-guide/features/credential-pools.md: OAuth comment line.
- reference/environment-variables.md: Provider Auth (OAuth) intro.
- getting-started/quickstart.md: provider-picker table row.
Completes the cfg_get migration started in PR #17304. Covers the
remaining hermes_cli/ and plugins/ config-access sites that the first
PR intentionally left opportunistic.
Migrated (33 sites across 14 files):
hermes_cli/setup.py 13 sites (terminal.*, agent.*, display.*, compression.*, tts.*)
hermes_cli/tools_config.py 7 sites (tts.*, browser.*, web.*, platform_toolsets.*)
hermes_cli/plugins_cmd.py 3 sites (plugins.*, memory.*, context.*)
plugins/memory/honcho/cli.py 3 sites (hosts.*)
hermes_cli/web_server.py 1 site (dashboard.*)
hermes_cli/skills_config.py 1 site (platform_disabled)
hermes_cli/plugins.py 1 site (plugins.disabled)
hermes_cli/status.py 1 site (terminal.backend)
hermes_cli/mcp_config.py 1 site (mcp_servers.*)
hermes_cli/webhook.py 1 site (platforms.webhook)
plugins/memory/__init__.py 1 site (memory.provider)
plugins/memory/hindsight/ 1 site (banks.hermes)
plugins/memory/holographic/ 1 site (plugins.hermes-memory-store)
run_agent.py 1 site (auxiliary.compression)
The helper supports non-literal keys too, so e.g.
cfg.get('hosts', {}).get(HOST, {})
becomes
cfg_get(cfg, 'hosts', HOST, default={})
Migration bugs caught and fixed during this PR:
1. An AST-based batch rewrite naïvely captured the first word token in
a chain, which corrupted 'self._config.get(...).get(...)' into
'self.cfg_get(_config, ...)' (dropping 'self.', creating a broken
method call). Plugins/memory/hindsight caught it via its test suite.
Fixed manually to 'cfg_get(self._config, ...)'.
2. Import-extension heuristic rewrote multi-line parenthesized imports
('from X import (\n A,\n B,\n)') as
'from X import cfg_get, (' — syntactically broken. Fixed by inserting
cfg_get as the first name inside the parentheses.
Combined with PR #17304, the cfg_get migration now covers:
PR #17304 (first batch): 20 sites in tools/ + gateway/
PR #17317 (this one): 33 sites in hermes_cli/ + plugins/ + run_agent.py
Total: 53 sites migrated. Remaining ~8 sites are either:
- Function-call chains (e.g. '_load_stt_config().get(...).get(...)')
that would need double-evaluation or a local binding to migrate
cleanly — intentionally deferred.
- JSON response-navigation (e.g. 'response_data.get('data',{}).get('web'))
which is unrelated to config access and shouldn't use cfg_get.
Verified:
- 412/412 tests/plugins/ pass (including the hindsight test that caught
the self.X regex bug before commit)
- 3181/3189 tests/hermes_cli/ pass (8 pre-existing failures on main,
verified by git-stash comparison)
- Live 'hermes status' and 'hermes config' render correctly (exercise
the migrated terminal.backend, tts.provider, browser.cloud_provider,
compression.threshold, display.tool_progress sites)
- Live 'hermes chat': 1 turn + /quit, zero errors in 11-line log window
No semantic changes — cfg_get was already proven to be a 1:1 match for
the original .get("X",{}).get("Y",default) pattern in PR #17304.
Every curator pass now emits a dated report directory under
`~/.hermes/logs/curator/{YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS}/` with two files:
- `run.json` — machine-readable full record (before/after snapshot,
state transitions, all tool calls, model/provider, timing, full LLM
final response untruncated, error if any)
- `REPORT.md` — human-readable markdown: model + duration header,
auto-transition counts, LLM consolidation stats, archived-this-run
list, new-skills-this-run list, state transitions, the full LLM
final summary, and a recovery footer pointing at the archive + the
`hermes curator restore` command
Reports live under `logs/curator/`, not inside `skills/` — they're
operational telemetry, not user-authored skill data, and belong
alongside `agent.log` / `gateway.log`.
Internals:
- `_run_llm_review()` now returns a dict (final, summary, model,
provider, tool_calls, error) instead of a bare truncated string so
the reporter has full fidelity
- Report writer is fully best-effort — any failure logs at DEBUG and
never breaks the curator itself. Same-second rerun gets a numeric
suffix so reports can't clobber each other
- Report path stamped into `.curator_state` as `last_report_path`
- `hermes curator status` surfaces a "last report:" line so users
can immediately open the latest run
Tests (all green):
- 7 new tests in tests/agent/test_curator_reports.py covering: report
location (logs not skills), both files written, run.json shape and
diff accuracy, markdown structure, error path still writes, state
transitions captured, same-second runs get unique dirs
- Existing test_run_review_synchronous_invokes_llm_stub updated to
stub the new dict-returning _run_llm_review signature
Live E2E: ran a synchronous pass against a 1-skill test collection
with a stubbed LLM; report written correctly, state stamped with
last_report_path, markdown human-readable, run.json machine-parseable.
The "cfg.get('X', {}).get('Y', default)" pattern appears 50+ times
across tools/, gateway/, and plugins/. Each call site manually handles
the same three gotchas:
1. Missing intermediate key → empty dict → chain works
2. Non-dict value at intermediate position → AttributeError
(uncaught in most sites, so a misconfigured YAML crashes the tool)
3. cfg is None → AttributeError
Introduces cfg_get(cfg, *keys, default=None) in hermes_cli/config.py
as the canonical helper. Handles all three uniformly, returns default
only when the final key is *absent* (matches dict.get semantics —
explicit None values are preserved, falsy values like 0 / False / ''
are preserved).
Named cfg_get rather than cfg_path to avoid shadowing the existing
'cfg_path = _hermes_home / "config.yaml"' local variable that appears
in gateway/run.py, cron/scheduler.py, hermes_cli/main.py, etc.
Migrated 20 call sites as the first-batch proof-of-value:
gateway/run.py 10 sites (agent/display subtrees)
tools/browser_tool.py 3 sites
tools/vision_tools.py 2 sites
tools/browser_camofox.py 1 site
tools/approval.py 1 site
tools/skills_tool.py 1 site
tools/skill_manager_tool.py 1 site
tools/credential_files.py 1 site
tools/env_passthrough.py 1 site
The remaining ~30 sites across plugins/ and smaller tool files can be
migrated opportunistically — the helper is now available and the
pattern is established.
Fixed a latent bug along the way: tools/vision_tools.py had its
cfg_get usage at line 560 inside a function that locally re-imports
'from hermes_cli.config import load_config', but the AST-based
migration script wrote the top-level cfg_get import to a different
function scope, leaving line 560's cfg_get as a NameError silently
swallowed by the surrounding try/except. Test
test_vision_uses_configured_temperature_and_timeout caught it. Fixed
by including cfg_get in the function-local import.
Verified:
- 7880/7893 tests/tools/ + tests/gateway/ + tests/hermes_cli/test_config
tests pass; all 13 failures pre-existing on main (MCP, delegate,
session_split_brain — verified earlier in the sweep).
- All 20 migrated sites AST-verified to have cfg_get in scope (either
module-level or function-local).
- Live 'hermes chat' smoke: 2 turns + /model switch + tool calls +
/quit, zero errors. Agent correctly counted 20 cfg_get hits across
8 tool files — matching the migration.
Semantic parity verified against the original pattern across 8 edge
cases (missing keys, None values, falsy values, empty strings, string
instead of dict, None cfg, nested levels).
Add opt-in terminal.docker_run_as_host_user config flag that passes
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) to the Docker backend so files written into
bind-mounted directories (/workspace, /root, docker_volumes entries) are
owned by the host user instead of root.
When enabled on POSIX platforms, also drops SETUID/SETGID caps since the
container no longer needs gosu/su to switch users. Falls back cleanly on
platforms without os.getuid (e.g. native Windows Docker) with a warning.
Wired through all three config.yaml -> TERMINAL_* env-var bridges:
- cli.py env_mappings (CLI + TUI startup)
- gateway/run.py _terminal_env_map (gateway / messaging platforms)
- hermes_cli/config.py _config_to_env_sync (`hermes config set`)
Also fixes docker_mount_cwd_to_workspace silently failing in gateway
mode -- it was missing from gateway/run.py's _terminal_env_map.
Adds tests/tools/test_terminal_config_env_sync.py to guard against
future drift between the three bridges (same bug class shipped twice
in one month).
Bundled Hermes image won't work with this flag since its entrypoint
expects to start as root for the usermod/gosu hermes flow; works with
the default nikolaik/python-nodejs image and plain Debian/Ubuntu.
Copilot caught that clearing inFlight on a transient normal-memory tick could
allow a second dump/eviction to start before the first async tick completed.
Only clear dumped on normal; let the in-flight tick's finally remove its own
level.
Tests:
- cd ui-tui && npm run type-check && npm run build
Based on three live test runs against 346 agent-created skills on the
author's own setup (~6.5 min, opus-4.7, 86 API calls), the curator
prompt needed three sharpenings before it consistently produced real
umbrella consolidation instead of passive audit output:
**Umbrella-first framing.** The original 'decide keep/patch/archive/
consolidate' framing lets opus default to 'keep' whenever two skills
aren't byte-identical. The new prompt explicitly tells the reviewer
that pairwise distinctness is the wrong bar — the right question is
'would a human maintainer write this as N separate skills, or one
skill with N labeled subsections?' Expect 10-25 prefix clusters; merge
each into an umbrella via one of three methods.
**Three concrete consolidation methods.** (a) Merge into an existing
umbrella (patch the broadest skill, archive siblings); (b) Create a
new umbrella SKILL.md (skill_manage action=create); (c) Demote
session-specific detail into references/, templates/, or scripts/
under the umbrella via skill_manage action=write_file, then archive
the narrow sibling. This matches the support-file vocabulary the
review-prompt side already uses (PR #17213).
**Two observed bailouts pre-empted:** 'usage counters are zero so I
can't judge' (rule 4: judge on content, not use_count) and 'each has
a distinct trigger' (rule 5: pairwise distinctness is the wrong bar).
**Config-aware parent inheritance.** _run_llm_review() was building
AIAgent() without explicit provider/model, hitting an auto-resolve
path that returned empty credentials → HTTP 400 'No models provided'
against OpenRouter. Fork now inherits the user's main provider and
model (via load_config + resolve_runtime_provider) before spawning —
runs on whatever the user is currently on, OAuth-backed or
pool-backed included.
**Unbounded iteration ceiling.** max_iterations=8 was way too low for
an umbrella-build pass over hundreds of skills. A live pass takes
50-100 API calls (scanning, clustering, skill_view'ing candidates,
patching umbrellas, mv'ing siblings). Raised to 9999 — the natural
stopping criterion is 'no more clusters worth processing', not an
arbitrary tool-call budget.
**Tests updated:** test_curator_review_prompt_has_invariants accepts
DO NOT / MUST NOT and drops 'keep' from the required-verb set (the
umbrella-first prompt correctly deemphasizes 'keep' as a first-class
decision label since passive keep-everything is the failure mode
being prevented). Added test_curator_review_prompt_is_umbrella_first
asserting the umbrella framing, class-level thinking, references/
+ templates/ + scripts/ support-file mentions, and the 'use_count
is not evidence of value' pre-emption. Added
test_curator_review_prompt_offers_support_file_actions asserting
skill_manage action=create and action=write_file are both named.
**Live validation on author's setup:**
- Run 1 (old prompt): 3 archives, stopped after surveying — typical passive outcome
- Run 2 (consolidation prompt): 44 archives, 3 patches, surfaced the 50-skill mlops reorg duplicate bug but didn't umbrella
- Run 3 (this prompt): 249 archives + 18 new class-level umbrellas created, reducing agent-created skills from 346 → 118 with every archived skill's content preserved as references/ under its umbrella. Pinned skill untouched. Full report in PR description.
Long-running gateways need the curator to fire on cadence without
restarts. Piggy-back on the existing cron ticker thread (which already
runs image/document cache cleanup every hour on the same pattern)
instead of spawning a dedicated timer thread.
- New CURATOR_EVERY = 60 ticks (poll hourly at default 60s interval).
The inner config.interval_hours gate controls the real cadence, so
60 of these 60 hourly pokes are cheap no-ops and one runs the review.
- Removed the boot-time call added in the prior commit — the ticker
covers boot + every hour thereafter. Avoids double-running.
Handles the weekly-default-on-24/7-gateway gap flagged in review.
Weekly is closer to how skill churn actually works — most agent-created
skills don't change multiple times per day, so a daily review is pure
cost without benefit. Bumping the default to 7 days reduces aux-model
spend while still catching drift and staleness on the timescales that
matter (30d stale, 90d archive).
Changes:
- DEFAULT_INTERVAL_HOURS: 24 -> 168 (7 days)
- config.yaml default: interval_hours: 24 -> 24 * 7
- CLI status line renders as '7d' when interval is a whole-day multiple
- Test `test_old_run_eligible` decoupled from the exact default: it now
uses 2 * get_interval_hours() so future tweaks don't break it
Previous invariants only gated the primary entry points
(apply_automatic_transitions, archive_skill, CLI pin). Several paths
were unprotected:
- bump_view / bump_use / bump_patch / set_state / set_pinned wrote
usage records unconditionally, which is confusing noise in
.usage.json even though the review list filtered them out
- restore_skill did not check whether a bundled skill now shadows
the archived name
- CLI unpin was asymmetric with CLI pin — it had no gate
Fixes:
- _mutate() (the shared counter / state writer) now drops silently
when the skill is not agent-created. .usage.json never gains a
record for a bundled or hub-installed skill.
- restore_skill() refuses to restore under a name that is now
bundled or hub-installed (would shadow upstream).
- CLI unpin gate matches CLI pin.
New tests:
- 5 provenance-guard tests on skill_usage (one per mutator)
- 1 end-to-end test that hammers every mutator at a bundled skill
and a hub skill, asserts both are untouched on disk, and asserts
the sidecar stays clean
- 2 CLI tests proving pin/unpin refuse bundled skills symmetrically
64/64 tests passing (29 skill_usage + 27 curator + 8 new guards).
